Inés needs someone who understands: peer support in recovery
Peer mentor wanted by a person four months into recovery from alcohol dependence.

I'm four months into recovery from alcohol dependence. I attend meetings and see a counselor, but the weeks between meetings are the hardest. I'd love a mentor - someone who has a year or more of recovery and who would be willing to talk once a week.
I'm not looking for a replacement for treatment. I'm looking for someone who understands what a bad Tuesday night feels like.
I'd prefer someone who's happy to do video calls. Any country is fine. I'll be respectful of your time and boundaries, and happy to pay it forward later.
Thanks for being kind about this.

You're not alone, Inés. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Take care.
Hope things get better soon. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from Chattogram.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Embakasi this morning.
